With CBS offering up only repeats on Monday, ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” and NBC’s “The Voice” both paused several weeks of declines and helped push the networks to slight gains and their usual primetime split.

FOX’s “Bones” and “House,” also capitalized on CBS’ absence to rise, week-to-week, while the same could not be said of both CW dramas, which experienced down weeks.

Overall, though, ABC averaged an estimated 15.16 million viewers and a 9.8 rating/15 share for Monday primetime, far ahead of the 5.2/8 and 8.8 million viewers for NBC. FOX’s 4.3/6 and nearly 6.9 million viewers edged out CBS’ 4.1/6 and 6.32 million. The CW averaged a 0.8/1 and 1.11 million viewers for Monday.

FOX’s “Bones” averaged 7.25 million viewers and a 2.2 key demo rating in third, comfortably ahead of the 5 million viewers and 1.7 key demo rating averaged by CBS’ repeats of “How I Met Your Mother” and “2 Broke Girls.” The CW’s “Gossip Girl” averaged only 1.005 million viewers and a 0.5 key demo rating for the night.

9 p.m. – Positions remained unchanged in the 9 p.m. hour.
